Benefits of a Health and Wellness Program
Health/fitness programs are cost saving elements of a company’s overall employee package. Since companies bear a portion, if not all, of health care costs of their employees, health and wellness programs can be designed to promote a better lifestyle (and work style) behavior that would lead to a range of benefits for both the employee and employer.

Program Concept
We have designed an effective fitness and wellness program that will enable your company to retain your employees and keep them healthy. The Corporate Wellness Program should be made a requirement by the Human Resources Department and communicated aggressively to the employees if it is to succeed. The rationale for implementing such a program is the notion that the physical, emotional, moral and spiritual fitness of the worker is an inherently good thing to attain.Program components include:· Introductory seminars prior to the exercise proper include topics on wellness, nutrition, fat loss, lifestyle and health management· Different workout windows to accommodate employees of different shifts and designing customized exercise program· Health screening and fitness testing· Age-bracketed Group Fitness classes appropriately designed to identify wants and consider interests of employees as per age demographics
Program Adherence
In order to derive the maximum benefit and return from health/fitness programs and to enhance their cost effectiveness, it is necessary to convince as many employees as possible to participate actively and with regularity (if company fails to make it mandatory). There have been numerous approaches to motivating employee participation, including formal recognition, earned time off, additional vacation days, monetary incentives and gift coupons – especially for company products.We can bring the wellness program to your company’s doorstep. An in-house program should have the following features:· Adequate venue and audio/projection systems for lectures· Indoor or outdoor facility large enough for participants· Clean, effective and well maintained exercise equipment· Efficient and clean shower/change rooms.
